Windshield washer stopped working the other day on my 04 NBP. Sounds like the pump is turning on but nothing is coming out of either nozzle. Even though extremely unlikely that both nozzles got clogged at the same time, I cleaned the nozzles with a needle for starters - no luck. In the manual, looks like I need to remove the fender shroud on the passenger side to get to the washer line.

Any suggestions once I get to the line? Should I try to blow the line out with my air compressor? Or do I need to just replace the whole line? I suppose it's possible the blockage is actually in the reservoir..........

Any tips/thoughts would be appreciated.

 

Check to make sure there is washer fluid in the reservoir?

Yeah, I checked that first, reservoir is all full and wasn't even close to empty (I read some threads about not letting it get too low, b/c that can cause clogs).

 

Is that the only thing not working. Saw this in 3G garage:

im havin the same damn problem

 

I already had the recall done on the wiper motor and my mirrors, seat, etc. are working normally. Thanks for the info though, I appreciate it - it may come in handy if I end up replacing the wiper motor later.

 

JRFlex - I plan on tackling this issue this weekend (hopefully). If I figure anything out I'll post it here......

 

Do you see a leak under the car when you try use the fluid?

 

I thought I saw something the other day, but wasn't sure if it was normal AC drip. You think the line could be cracked or leaking?

 

it would be the color of your fluid and you could definitely smell it.
When I got my car from the dealer my fluid wasn't working, they had disconnected the line.

 

yeah def. post whatever u find...i had the recall done too...they clear out all the hoses so those arent the problem....they tested it right before i came back to pik up my car...the windsheild still had the some leftover spray.....i tried it again and it was clogged...chances are there is junk in the tank...

 

rat ate the hose or both sprayer are clogged.

 

Problem solved. Took of inner fender and everything was in order. Took off the cowl in the front and the line was disconnected. I just had my windshield replaced a few weeks ago, they probably did not connect the line.

JRFlex - If you want any more details let me know, I can tell you how to get to the reservoir and the washer line under the cowl.

 

yeah man....the more details the better....jus PM me or something...thanks for the update
